Boat show season kicks off next month with the arrival of the Cannes Yachting Festival. The annual event, which takes place from September 6 to 11, 2022, will showcase one of the largest collections of European and world debuts in years. Visitor attendance is also expected to hit record highs, with potential owners keen to catch the first glimpse of the latest launches from the world’s top shipyards. Here are nine boats making world premieres on the French Riviera.

Baglietto Dom 133 ‘Attitude’

Presenting 133 feet of Attitude , this yacht is the second of six Baglietto DOM 133 models. The exterior was designed by Stefano Vafiadis with an interior by Ezequiel Farca. Attitude was built to cross oceans with a 3,500-nautical-mile range. A key feature is the split-level beach club with a hydrofloor infinity pool, meaning the pool floor can be raised flush to expand the footprint of the cockpit. With a seven-foot draft, it’s an ideal bluewater cruiser that can access shallow waters.

Benetti 37M B.Yond

Goga , the first of Benetti’s new 37M B.Yond series, brings zero emissions to a pocket explorer. The 121-foot yacht forms part of Benetti’s Voyager series and was the last project in collaboration with designer Stefano Righini before his death. It’s billed as the greenest boat in its class, thanks to SCR catalytic filters and a Siemens E-mode hybrid system that tailors energy consumption to guests’ usage. On the inside, Mauro Izzo’s white interior is stunning but not over the top, with details like a walk-in wine cabinet on the upper deck to enhance life on board. The B.Yond’s rear quarters is another noteworthy detail in this new design. The stern’s fold-out terrace adds an extra layer of gracious living at the water line.

Ferretti Yachts 860

Bringing art deco-inspired beauty to Cannes this year, Ferretti’s 860 flybridge yacht pairs Italian elegance with performance. Floor-to-ceiling windows, cutaway bulwarks and a glass transom provide uninterrupted views from the main deck. It’s separated from the semi-raised pilothouse by a fully enclosed galley. Despite measuring only 88 feet, the tri-deck design optimizes space. On the asymmetric flybridge an optional jacuzzi, sunpads, second helm and al fresco dining area ensure the small footprint uses every square foot. A choice of three hardtops adds an extra layer of customization. On the lower deck, a drop-down swim platform is teamed with a water-level tender garage, large enough to store a 13-foot tender.

Apreamare Gozzo 45

This large Italian gozzo design brings a dash of elegance to the Cannes lineup of classy cruisers. Conceived by Cataldo Aprea, naval architect Marco Casali of Too-Design and Umberto Tagliavini of Marine Design, the round-stern gozzo styling of this 45-footer centers around outdoor spaces. They include the swim platform, two large sunbeds and a dining table for eight in the cockpit. At the bow, more oversized sunbeds create a lounge area accessed on both sides. High bulwarks keep guests splash-free when the boat is under way. Below decks, owners can choose between a two-cabin layout with dinette, or a three-cabin layout, both with two bathrooms.

TecnoRib Pirelli 50

Designed by TecnoRib in collaboration with the Mannerfelt Design studio, the Pirelli 50 is suited for daily use, as a support vessel for superyachts or standalone go-fast boat for mid-range cruises. The 49-foot walkaround will make its world debut at Cannes this year, combining practicality with peformance. Aggressive, fast and attractive—with teak decking and a slanted hardtop over the cockpit—the boat’s joystick controls create easy maneuvering, while two Mercury Verado 600s pack 1200 horsepower for a 50-knot top end. Two sunpads at the stern and a bow lounge area open up the boat’s social possibilities.

Invictus GT320S

As the fourth outboard model from Invictus, the GT320S twins the Italian shipyard’s characteristic half-reverse bow with a neat and linear profile. But all eyes will be on the large living area when the nippy 33-foot cruiser debuts at Cannes, which replaces the space occupied by the engine room on the sterndrive version. A small bimini provides shade and can be swapped out for an optional carbon hardtop. The design also includes integrated lighting, an added feature typically found on much larger boats. A pair of Yamaha outboard engines with 300hp come as standard, though the boat accommodates engines up to 900hp that deliver a blistering 50-knot top speed.

Azimut Grande 36M

Designed by Alberto Mancini to evoke a feeling of being completely immersed in nature, the Azimut Grande 36M attempts to be one interwoven space. Full-height windows, a walkaround upper deck that runs from bow to stern and a sky lounge with oversized slide-away glass doors all contribute to the indoor-outdoor connection and informal ambience. An all-glass hot tub on the sundeck adds style. The 118-footer’s large beach club delivers waterside sophistication. Forming part of Azimut’s Low Emission range, the Grande’s lightweight carbon-fiber superstructure helps reduce fuel consumption by 20 percent, according to Azimut, while the displacement-to-planing hull (D2P) bolsters cruising efficiency by 40 percent.

Prestige M48

Making a multihull entrance at Cannes is the Prestige M48. It will be the first power catamaran from French builder Prestige Yachts. Taller than other power cats, its multiple outdoor spaces include a flybridge with dining area and second helm, and a beach club terrace that suspends guests over the water. Inside, a deep bridge deck links the two hulls, which creates enough space for full-beam cabins. Powered by twin 320-hp Volvo Penta D4s, Prestige says the boat is 20-percent more efficient than a similar-sized monohull when cruising at high speeds.

Riva 102 Corsaro Super

Silver, sporty and with an arrowhead bow, the first model in Riva’s 102 Corsaro Super range looks like a speeding bullet. The 99-footer is the successor to Riva’s enduring 100 Corsaro model, designed by Officina Italiana Design, Piero Ferrari and the Ferretti Group engineering department. Owners can choose from two interior configurations. There are also two engine setups: MTU 16V 2000 M96 engines for a top speed of 26 knots, or twin MTU 16V 2000 M96Ls that produce 28 knots. The yacht’s 377-sq.ft. beach club adds another element to the yacht’s gracious waterside living.
